This summer was boring, i did´t go to any place, I stayed here,in Málaga, with my friends and I tried to find a job. The weather was sunny and hot. My life changed in summer, it was a great and marvellous change... I met my girlfriend and now I think that life is wonderful...
I stayed in Malaga because I began to work as a lifeguard and I worked hard.At nights I went to parties and in the morning I went to the beach with my friends. Yes,I had a good time.
I was all summer in the pool and beach with my boyfriend and my friends. I went to a weekend camping in Marbella, I had a great time!
I went out this summer holiday especially on Saturdays. a Monday night I went to see my favorite dj in a nightclub in marbella.también I bought lots of clothes and wedding. a wonderful summer!
The last summer I was working in a restaurant to get money because later I was loving to travel.
I was going to the beach in the morning from Monday to Friday because on weekend I was working all day so hard. So the last summer I was all time with my friends and also I was going out sometimes to parties.
It has been very quick!
